Squirt A 2016-17

Do the Bears have two goalies

[Tommy, The Bomber]

They have one full time Goalie!!! He quite good, the only issue is their 2nd and 3rd line defense isn't any good and fail him. In the games I've seen that's what happened.

T the B sounds like a goalie dad. 
Never blame your D
Goalies need their D........D needs their forwards..  Team game
(spoken like. D dad)

[Tommy, The Bomber]

I totally agree, It is a team sport but also sometimes the Goalie let's the D down and other times the D let's the Goalie down.  No one is perfect but some stops should be routine. On either D or Goalie.

Sometimes hot goalies play behind bad teams and sometimes hot teams play in front of bad goalies.  Both situations are less than ideal.  Regardless, parents have to understand this and keep their griping to themselves.  I have yet to hear a parent complain out loud about a goalie (though I'm sure it's happened) despite hearing goalie parents complain about the team in front of them.  Kids make mistakes, but nothing destroys confidence in a goalie more than when they openly complain about their team.  This is the coach's perspective...

Yes very good goalie who had already had a strong squirt A season last year.  The majority of their team last season was 05's so the team was really built around him and the 2 other 06's who returned. He could easily have played up to peewee, so it's nice to see a family opting to stay in their age group and be a difference maker.

[Tommy, The Bomber]

I dont know the Goalie or the family, but it's quite obvious they made not only the right decision. But the best decision for their son. Kudos to them!!!!

I know but I still think Jr Ducks are a better team based on what I have seen this season.  Next time they meet I think Ducks win by 2.

[Tommy, The Bomber]

The Ducks 1 also have more returning players that played Squirt A last year so their not as inexperienced as the Bears. They will finish ahead of the Bears this year.

That makes no sense. The two teams played. One team beat the other... but you "think" the losing team is better. Rank teams on what they've done, not what you think they're going to do.
